Man is dragged from shower by 19 police, beaten and thrown outdoors bloodied, bruised and naked for rowing with partner (who just happened to be an officer’s ex-wife)

A man who was dragged naked, bloodied and bruised into the street by a team of 19 police officers who stormed his house has been awarded a five-figure payout.

Stephen Whenary, 42, was pulled from the shower, beaten around the head with a baton, sprayed with CS gas and arrested after police received a report he had been arguing with his partner, the ex wife of an officer, in 2005.

Outraged by his extensive injuries Mr Whenary embarked on a bitter six-year campaign for justice and sued Cleveland Police for assault, false imprisonment and malicious prosecution.
